Interesting.
It seems that uBo has improved its performance on the Speedometer 3.1 test.
And the current RC version is probably even better.
I’ll have to conduct more in-depth tests soon, but it seems to me that we’ve gone from 9.8%,compared to my MV3 ad blocker, which I use as a benchmark,down to 1.8% (obviously, the lower the better).
I’m glad to hear that.

Yes a lot of attention to scriptlet handling (dedup scriptlets, run at open tabs, startup improvements) and I see a lot of trusted scriptlets being changed (it started with two security issues related to allowing user permission o_O reported by and improved by another developer who forked uBOL), so probably also security improvements (a lot were open to long parameter parsing and raw javascript abuse).

Now the percentage difference is 6.03%.
Clearly, there is a difference between a stable and RC.

Installed Firefox 160 to try uBO; its element blocker does not work properly on some websites compared to that of uBOL; I was expecting the reverse.

Websites you visit everyday, or test sites? How did you realize element blocker wasn't working properly? I ask this as I don't seem to have an issue with FF and uBO, at least that is recognizable to me?
